I'm done using this thread. All future updates will be at the new one I started in the correct location:

Apparently I managed to start my original thread in the wrong forum, so I'm going to start a new one.

The old on is at this link if you really want to see the updates; all future updates will be...

It might be the only reasonable argument, but it is VERY reasonable.

Do you think we could pick up another AAAA pitch-to-contact non-prospect for him (or do we have them all already)?

That and whether or not the guy's girlfriend is hot.

I didn't know Worley still had optiions left. It doesn't solve the problem, but at least the paperwork is easier.

Punto was a decent player who tended to have good years followed by horrible years. He wasn't the problem. Gardenhire and Ryan/Smith were the problems for casting him as a starter (instead of a very...

For those on a low budget, I have found that one can normally find a lower price on the ESPN Mag subscription than on Insider.

You do realize that Colabello is only 6 months younger than Joe Mauer, don't you? He might be a semi-useful player right now, but generally when we talk prospect we're talking about someone with...

Vargas continues to recover from the slow start.

The Angels did MLB a big favor by coming back to win that game, because that protest would have been upheld, and they would have had to replay the game from that point. I was shocked an umpire at...

Let's go ahead and side-track it. Radke also had an awesome TV commercial early in his career. Old SEGA TV Commercial with Brad Radke "World Series baseball" by Lawrence Bridges - YouTube

They didn't win it all, but they were special. I became a Twins fan around 1972, so I experienced '72-'86 and '93-'99. Those '04-06 teams were fun to watch, especially when Santana and Liriano were...

They were the two best players on a contending team. Both won MVP awards (although I didn't think Morneau should have.) They are the kind of players that good teams build around.

The problem...

Now he has. 4-4 with 2 doubles tonight.

Vargas got off to a slow start. After 11 games, he had an ugly .188/.250/.375/.625 line. On April 17th, after 3 straight 0-4 games, he wasn't in the starting lineup for the first time this year. He...

It sounds like the Twins won the trade just by the damage Liriano did to the White Sox. Anything positive Escobar and Hernandez do will just add to that.

Not a McCarver fan, but that quote is awesome.

I think the critics said it was a worse signing than the Marquis one. The contracts (1 yr/$3M vs. 2/$10M) were the main factors. Correia doesn't have to pitch worse than Marquis to make it a worse...

"We get one of these after each Correia start..."

I hope we keep the tradition up for the rest of this year and all of the next. When KC collects his Cy Young award(s) I will be the happiest...

I'll take Kennys Vargas if he's still available

Maybe I just can't relate, because I still clearly remember and still complain about the weather at a scheduled double-header in 1975.

I'm sure it says more about me than about those who won't...

We couldn't have nearly as much fun with that.

If we can get someone to take Mauer and Doumit off our hands we can clear some room for him. I guess that would make Butera his back-up, but with an offensive force like that, who needs a back-up?
